Title:
pkexec needs ability to retain user HOME and possibly other
environment
Status in “gparted” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Status in “policykit-1” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Launching gui applications with pkexec strips their environment bare
and points the home directory to /root, causing the gnome file dialog
to behave badly. It needs a way to preserve the user home the way
sudo and gksu do.
